Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_ModeratePP5
The NM_000275.3(OCA2):c.1000G>A(p.Ala334Thr) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000041 in 1,461,820 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A334V) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 18821858, 26165494, 29437493)
This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 334 of the OCA2 protein (p.Ala334Thr). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with oculocutaneous albinism (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 522150). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on OCA2 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Ala334 amino acid residue in OCA2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 29345414). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
